Invite two of them.
The stereotype in question is that some Baptists might privately enjoy drinking but would refrain from doing so in the presence of fellow church members to avoid judgment or gossip.
The joke suggests that if you invite just one Baptist, they might drink all your beer because there are no other church members around to witness it. However, if you invite two Baptists, neither will drink because each serves as a social check on the other, ensuring they both adhere to the community’s norms or expectations about alcohol consumption.
